Dhruv's point of view

It's already 3:00 P.M of noon when we reached the collector office. Whole ride I was keep apologizing Aditi but she didn't even spare me a glance.

It wasn't a misunderstanding what I asked her. Aditi cleared with me on our farewell night eight years ago that she thinks Raghav as his brother but like a fool and jealous freak I made her angry by asking such stupid question. How could I think about Aditi like that. It's not my fault to think all that. It's all because of Raghav. He is the one who keep filling my mind that he likes her just to make me accept that I like my beautiful neighbour.

Idiot...

He could find the other way to accept me. Now I made Aditi angry and I don't know how to calm her anger.

"Aditi...."

As the car stopped on the collectorate office, Aditi step down from the car and leave from there ignoring my call.

I parked the car, handed keys to the driver and went inside the office. Aditi was on her desk, pretending to work in some files, completely ignoring me when I stopped in front of her desk.

"Aditi, I said I am sorry. Can we talk?"

I gain the attention of many other employees as I don't usually stop anyone's desk especially an intern.

"There is nothing to talk. I am not angry on you. I am just  minding my own business. You should do the same." She said while flipping the file page angrily without looking at me.

Damn she look hotter even  when she is angry.

"Let see how long you can keep minding your business and ignoring me." I challenged her but it didn't effect her as she doesn't reply anything and didn't even looked at me.

I looked around and every one was looking at me with their curious eyes. I lifted my right eyebrow to them and everyone started doing their work.

I came to my cabin and meet Shastri ji there. He updated me with some meetings and reports and I tried to focus on them but I could not. It's been an hour since we returned from Raghav's home and I still could not find the way to cool down Aditi's anger.

Suddenly an idea pop in my head and I called Shastri ji in my cabin. Shastri ji showed up with in a minute in my cabin and waiting for my order.

"Call Aditi inside in my cabin and tell her to bring her stuff too." Shastri ji nodded his head and leave from there while I have a huge grin on my face.

So what if she is not talking to me being in front of her may calm down her anger.

"Sir, you called.." I clenched the pen I was holding.

Damn every time she called me sir in office, I turned on. I should not bring these thoughts about my beautiful neighbour. This is not the right time. I have a long way to go there.

"Yeah, keep these files with you and make a report about your views on the fields harvesting, over there." I pointed towards the couch which was in the right of my cabin.

First she give me a look but she better know she could not disobey me in office. I am her boss. She nodded her head, took the file from me and sit on the couch. Smile still not wipe off from my face looking at her working in my cabin give me the some kind of satisfaction.

*****

No...

It's not working. I thought she would talk to me or at least look at me but my beautiful neighbour was too busy in her given work that she forget about me. She didn't even take the tea which I offered her earlier. I apologized her many time that I never apologized to anyone this much ever in my life. We both are alone in my cabin and to my request Shastri ji also did not disturb me much today.
